Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 603



"You're acting all sneaky."

Christine looped her arm through Bella's as they walked in. "Bella, it's only because your darling daughter was getting antsy. I thought I'd do a little recon on the enemy."

Bella chuckled, "So now I'm the enemy."

Christine slapped her forehead, "Oh, excuse my lack of fancy words, didn't mean to make you the butt of the joke."

Bella knew her all too well; Christine was always up for a laugh and didn't take it to heart. Pulling up a chair, she said, "Have a seat. Spend a little time chatting, and you'll see why there's a rush."

I was genuinely surprised, "You and Ramona can talk for that long?"

After all, the drama between Victor and Pearl had caused a rift with my mom and the entire Myers family.

Bella took a sip of water, "Honestly, I didn't expect it either. Given Ramona's condition, it was surprising how calmly we could chat."

"Some details about Victor I'd forgotten, she remembered."

Then, she shifted tone, "But there's something I've got to tell you."

I had a bad feeling, "Ramona, she..."

The look on my face must've given me away.
